Treatment Combinations.
Every treatment we offer comprises a combination of various agents. These agents are always added as a separate component to the treatment, allowing us to assess and adjust the efficacy of each agent individually as needed.
Treatment Selection Based on Anamnesis and Measurements:
The choice of treatment is determined by the patient’s anamnesis and specific measurements:
– For a diagnosis of orthostatic intolerance, as indicated by a deviating NASA 10-minute lean test or an elevated value on the Orthostatic Grading Scale, we initiate the treatment with water, salt, and additional medication if required.
Conversely, the preferred treatment begins with L-carnitine in evident mitochondrial dysfunction without signs of orthostatic intolerance.
Values are mentioned when the numbers were deemed sufficient for assessment.
Overall result: A positive effect of the treatment in 96% of the patients who tested at least three agents.
Conclusion
Thanks to our systematic approach and detailed recording, we can provide tailor-made treatments based on each patient’s unique needs and symptoms.
The video is better.
In the past few months, we have been speaking to more people via video and comparing whether it is better than the old in-person consultations at the center.
Indeed, it is better.
We particularly notice that people do not arrive exhausted from traveling to our location and that there is less stress. You don’t need to ask for help with transportation, and you don’t have to rush home for children or due to traffic.
People can talk to us from their couches or bed, and the tests go smoothly with video guidance.
The transfer of information is improved, and there is no need for more than that.
Especially now, with the increasing number of consultations in Europe, this is a compelling reason for us not to return to the old way of shaking hands in the examination room.
Examination and Treatment with Video Consultations:
Using secure video connections, patients can now receive diagnosis and treatment without traveling to our outpatient clinic. We can now better examine individuals who are bedbound or living in other countries. Necessary tests can be conducted at home with professional guidance.
The involvement of physiotherapists and other healthcare professionals in the treatment, using video meetings to support and coordinate the care, has proven to be a practical approach. We are successfully implementing this method in treating ME/CFS and Long COVID patients in Europe.
In this section, we share our thoughts and examples of patients. We ensure that these medical histories are described so they cannot be traced back to existing patients to protect their privacy.
Low Dose Naltrexone for Long COVID?
We receive many questions about Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN).
Long COVID patients are asking if we prescribe it.
The answer to the first question is: yes, we prescribe it only after an examination and with guidance.
